Pre-Drywall Phase Inspection
Documents framing, rough electrical, rough plumbing, HVAC rough-in, and hurricane-strap connections before they're sealed behind drywall.
What This Inspection Covers
A Pre-Drywall Phase Inspection documents framing, rough electrical, rough plumbing, HVAC rough-in, window/door flashing, and hurricane-strap connections before they're sealed behind drywall. It's the one phase where these details can still be seen and photographed.
What's Checked
- •Structural framing and fastening
- •Hurricane strap and clip connections at roof-to-wall and wall-to-foundation tie-downs
- •Rough electrical wiring, box placement, and grounding
- •Rough plumbing supply/DWV routing and any visible leaks or damage
- •HVAC ductwork routing and unit placement
- •Window and exterior door flashing before wrap
- •Visible moisture intrusion
- •Full photo documentation of all of the above
Who It's For
This inspection is for buyers of new-construction homes who want framing, rough-ins, and tie-down connections documented while they're still visible, before drywall permanently conceals them.
Important to Know
This is a visual inspection only, not a municipal or code inspection, engineering certification, or guarantee. It does not replace your local building department's own inspections.
